The effects of cooperative learning activities in blossoms lesson towards students' achievement in learning chemistry

Chemistry is often considered by students as a difficult subject because it has many abstract concepts which are difficult to understand. Therefore, with the advancementof technology, teaching methods have integrated multimedia elements such as video to help students to understand abstract concepts...
